"Emil Schürer's Geschichte des jüdischen Volkes im Zeitalter Jesu Christi, a critical presentation of the whole evidence concerning Jewish history, institutions, and literature from 175 B.C. to A.D. 135, has rendered invaluable services to scholars for nearly a century. It had four successive German editions between 1874 and 1909, and an English translation, A History of the Jewish People in the Time of Jesus Christ, was made from the second German edition and published between 1885 and 1891. The present work, while retaining the structure and all that is still valid of the most recent edition of the original, offers a fresh English text and a full and integrated revision of the entire subject matter. The bibliographies have been updated and supplemented; the sources are presented according to the latest scholarly editions with a corresponding adjustment of the argument, when necessary; and all the new archaeological, epigraphical, numismatic, and literary evidence, including the Dead Sea Scrolls and the Bar Kokhba documents, has been introduced into the survey. Account has also been taken of the progress in historical research, both in the classical and Jewish fields. The editors hope that by reminding students of the intertestamental era of the profound debt owed to nineteenth-century learning, and by placing within the framework of the finest product of that scholarship the vast accretion of knowledge gained in the twentieth century, the new Schürer will prove to be a sure foundation upon which future historians of Judaism in the age of Jesus may build.".
